Depends on skill level and what driveline setup you choose. It can be done though.

Anything can be flipped with the right drive train and skill level

Hi I'm running a tpe 964 with bpipe with 144 mag pump in a surf lay up momentum (50kg) hull And can get over 75% round
Thanks

pump tuning is everything in my opinion, you can have the best engine and hull, but if your pump is not setup for the type of riding you do then the expected results will never be achieved.

When you say pump tuning do you mean prop pitch etc

 

[cookn]

yes pump size, prop pitch and turn/reduction nozzle bore. There are lots of different views on this topic so I won't get into the specifics, but if you have any questions pm me.

if your getting 75% around, a different hull is not what you need. its more practice. My ski is probably 40kg and I can get 80% around with a unported 701. But that's because ive been riding with people all summer that are good. Find people to ride with and learn from them/ with them. Power will compensate for lack of skill. But building the skill will be better in the long run.

Yes I agree more practice is key
Only been trying for a couple of months now. But want a hull for flat and surf. Thanks for all advice
